Facility Inspections
Although this facility's overall grade is not a highlight, it received a slightly more favorable grade in the area of inspections. We awarded it a B- for this category, which is not bad. Inspection scores weigh a host of factors found on a nursing home's inspection reports. One key criteria we look at is the number and severity of deficiencies. Fortunately, although this place had a few minor dings on its report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those labeled as categories G through L. This tells you that CMS didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Finally, CMS flagged this nursing home for possible abuse or neglect. This is not what you want to see. We advise you to direct your search elsewhere.
Nurse Quality
This nursing home actually received a decent grade in the area of nursing as well. We awarded it a grade of B- for that category, which is not a bad score. Our nursing rating consists of quite a few subcategories, but the primary consideration is the level of nurse hours per patient per week. This particular facility provided just 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This figure is far below the national average. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this facility actually fared better in some of the quality measures we looked at. In fact, it scored well in terms of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls.

Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home was given its third most favorable category grade in the area of short-term care. We gave this nursing home a grade of B- in this category, which is an acceptable score. In the category of short-term care, we seek to qualify measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We assess a facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses and various therapists. We found that this place was below average in the two key staffing areas we focus on. It provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other facilities. The final statistic we assessed in this category is the number of patients who ultimately were able to return home from the facility. We found that just 5.3 percent of this facility's patients returned home.
Long-term Care Quality
The final area we assessed was long-term care. This facility was awarded a grade of B- for the category. Our long-term care grades are more important for individuals in need of more traditional services associated with personal care. On top of considering the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to a relatively low 79.6875 percent of its residents, which is somewhat concerning. Nevertheless, this nursing home keeps its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
